1. Set aside time to clear and tidy.

Check the weather and choose a nice sunny day to do this so you can enjoy it rather than it feeling like a chore. If you find items that you no longer use then why not make money from them? You could sell them on Ebay or a more location based platform like Paperclip! Donating unwanted items to charity is also a great way to clear things out and feel good about it! Emmaus is a fantastic charity which are working towards ending homelessness. They accept furniture, electrical items and clothing. If some of your items are a little battered and worn then they may be able to spruce it up in their workshops, so make sure to check out their website here.

2. Give your shed a whole new look.
